Drones are becoming more versatile and smarter every day. The video of a swarm of drones flying through a forest and avoiding crashing into the trees shows the good work done at the Chinese University of Zhejiang, and makes us see that these devices can have more complex applications every day.
The important thing about this case is that it is about 10 small drones that fit in the palm of a hand, weigh a few grams, can send video in real time and all work autonomously, without any external control.
The power of calculation (with the support of AI) is integrated into them, and they communicate with each other to share the data of their environment, and fly all together in one direction without colliding with any of the obstacles in their path. Which are not few.

As soon as it was released on video, there were immediately people who highlighted the possibilities of using this technology in military applications, which is quite normal, since the technology is usually quite generic and it is the applications that are used for one cause or another. .
I prefer to stay with the positive part that in a small flying device we can put the appropriate computing power to carry out different missions in previously unexplored areas, and without colliding with any obstacle that it may find in its path.
And that work can be done alone, or in conjunction with others. And the best thing is that as time goes by, the electronics and sensors will be miniaturized, and therefore its flight capabilities will only increase and improve.
The world of drones has a great future, but the use of airspace must be properly managed and controlled. I don't want a drone to fall on my head.
